Our world is so full of fear these days, and so many major decisions that affect everyone are being made from that emotional space. We think that social change is possible by turning that paradigm around: If we can live from a place of love, maybe we’d learn to trust each other… This is a loving and gentle song for making changes that matter.
We are living in a society in which we are constantly being pulled out of our present moment by technology, which can dissociate us from the people around us and distract us from the vital importance of human connection. The song “Here & Now” encourages social change by reminding us to take the time to enjoy the most important things, in spite of everything that modern life throws at us. We celebrate diversity with two richly contrasting vocals from Kenya and Denmark.

Miracle For thousands of generations, humanity has been waiting for some kind of miracle to rescue us from all the hardships we have experienced and have created for ourselves. But some say the miracle has been there inside of us all along. This song is a reminder of our own power and our responsibility to use it collectively and wisely.
From the dawn of humanity we’ve been nurtured and protected by nature and the beauty of the world that surrounds us. Lately we’ve been going through some growing pains and causing damage to the very force that gave us life. This is both a lullaby and a wakeup call. Heartfelt vocals convey both sides of the story, supported by emotional performances on the violin and harp, over a powerful backing track that takes us from innocence to experience.
